New Bell Schedule - Kent Gardens
At the School Board Work session on December 10, Superintendent Brabrand presented a revised phased-plan to return all students who have selected the in-person option starting in January, 2021. Staff worked to improve start times and end times for all levels.
Unless there are additional updates due to health and safety of staff and students, the following bell schedule will be in place effective January 12, 2021 for both virtual and in-person instruction. Kent Gardens ES will be 9:00 AM-3:30 PM for in-person and virtual instruction.
We will send more detailed information about how this will impact student schedules after the winter break.
Teacher Planning Day - Monday, January 4, 2021
Dr. Brabrand announced in a video email yesterday that Monday, January 4th will be a teacher preparation day. Teachers will post asynchronous learning and will note attendance through the work completion.
